I can`t tell you about codes in your area, but my central ac drains to the shower in the basement bathroom and I have no problem with it. Who says the water is dirty and mold forms? The water draining out is condensed from the water vapor in the air from the home ( is that dirty?) and if the unit is installed and maintained properly the drain will flow freely without mold or bacteria issues as mine does.

Water dripping from back box on a ford explorer 4ltr v6 car is running fine what could be the problem?

If it's part of the AC system you're just getting a little condensate from the cooling coils. Often the defroster will also cause a little condensate to build up. It has to go somewhere and many auto manufacturers have a tube or other device for allowing the condensate to leak out. Not only is it normal, it's necessary to get rid of the condensate.

What causes AC condensate to leak on the passenger floor and how do you fix it?

The usual cause is a condensate drain that is plugged. You should be able to crawl under the car and poke something up through the drain to clear it out. Another possible problem is the drain pan is cracked or broken allowing the condensate to drip. This would require partial disassembly of the dash to replace.
